- One of the antenna compediums has a 4 element vertical phased array for 80(?) that used loaded center fed vertical dipoles. They ran coax up the tube. The tricky thing about what you propose is feedi

- There is in the ARRL handbook a design for an end-fed dipole just like Tom suggests. It was oriented horizontally, but I see no reason why vertical orientation wouldn't work. The antenna was made of

- Of course! You don't really need triax or twinax..(too early, and the coffee hasn't taken effect yet) I forgot, the inside and the outside of the coax are actually different conductors for RF. The cu

- Tom, Why not make a trap at the bottom out of coax??? Use a 1/2 wl of coax as the radiator with the shield cut 1/4 wl back from the open end. Tie the shield and center together at the ends of the ou

- We shouldn't mistake that for a good system. The only reason you get away with it is you are running QRP, or have a lucky feedline length. It is impossible to end-feed a half wave antenna without ha
